    What a fun experience! The racing simulators felt incredibly realistic, and there was a great variety of tracks and cars to choose from. The staff was welcoming, helpful, and took the time to explain everything before we got started, making it easy even for first-time racers. The atmosphere was awesome with immersive lighting, racing sounds, and a competitive vibe that made it feel like you were at a real motorsport event. Whether you're a casual player or a racing fan, this is a great place to hang out with friends or family. We'll definitely be coming back for another race!

    This place deserves more than 5 stars. I thought this was going to be an interactive video game type of thing but it was way more than that. I will 100% be back again and I will be telling all my friends about this. A truly unique experience. You really feel the true race car experience and I think you need to wear workout clothes cause I felt the sweat from trying to concentrate and control the car. The cost is so worth the 1 or 2 hour time slot. I'm sold and will be looking into a membership cause I'm addicted.

    First time trying sim racing and I'm glad I chose the 2-hour Nordschleife experience - absolutely worth the $82! Even though I didn't use the full session (it's more physically demanding than expected - seriously, LOL), the experience was fantastic from start to finish. Shoutout to Jason on staff - super professional and welcoming. He guided me through check-in, helped set everything up, and even offered a bottle of water before giving me some helpful tips on handling the cars. Small touches like that really elevated the visit. For those curious, here's the YouTube link to my run - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzysPtCC5gE. I clocked in around 8 minutes from the pit, which I think is pretty decent for a first-timer!

    Went with a group of 8 on 7/12/25. It wasn't full. We did a 2 hour session. This was so fun!! I love how we could choose our cars, race track and experience. You definitely should go down the list!! We did gt and F4! Next time it will be F3 and F2. Make sure to turn the motion all the way up to really feel the experience. Parking: plenty since it is in a mall Value: A little expensive as it was $100+ per person, but it was for 2 hours

    Came in with my family to try this place out, the employee named WEI was extremely helpful. 5 star service, will definitely come back because of how welcoming and exciting he made everything seem. Thank you Wei!!! We appreciate you!

    At arrival, told policy changed to 12+. Please update your site, very disappointed kids.

    Yall have the Coronado nascar course?

    Is there a bar? Or food and drinks? Of Course the wife wants to know if there's alcohol while I'm driving so she can have a drink.

    What if you don't know how to use manual shifting?

    We have automatic shifting as an option so that’s not an issue :)

    Yes! Amazing feedback on downshifting etc

    The kids had to get the force feedback turned down because of how hard it was to drive.

The venue is roomy, clean and safe. There's a bar/ restaurant area you can order food and plenty of space with couches to watch racers. Staff is friendly and service is great! The teens opted for 3 races at $70/racer. They also had a package where you can get a K1 tshirt & 2 races at $70/racer. Great team building event space for employers & adults too! Definitely coming back!

When you walk in, it's a little confusing at first since it's not super clear where to go and the place is pretty spacious. We initially went to the cashier, and they directed us to the computers on the side to sign the waivers first, then come back to pay. After we paid, they told us the wait would be about 30 minutes, but surprisingly they called our names within just 2 to 3 minutes while we were still walking around. That was a nice bonus. :) They provided headsocks for free, and we didn't have to pay extra or sign up for any annual membership. Each race is supposed to be 12 laps, but if someone finishes early, you might end up doing less. One of the boys completed 11 laps, but didn't affect the experience at all. As we were exiting, we saw a podium area so kids hopped on for a quick photo. I've been here before for birthday parties and even with coworkers, and every time has been consistently fun. The staff was friendly and everything ran smoothly. Not really sure why this place gets some negative reviews. I haven't experienced anything negative. Would definitely come back.

A huge shoutout to Deon, who provided the best customer service we've experienced anywhere in a long time. Our kids had an absolute blast, and Deon was fantastic with them. He was super helpful, patient, and attentive while getting them set up and safely having fun on the go-karts and bumper boats. Stepping back onto the track brought back so many cherished childhood memories of my dad, and Deon helped ensure my kids walked away with those exact same happy memories today. Thank you, Deon, for making a meaningful day so incredible for our family. We will definitely be back!

The turf is ripped, full of holes, and in rough shape on pretty much every hole. We honestly considered turning around and asking for a refund, but our kids were so excited to play that we stuck it out rather than crush their little mini-golf dreams. The staff was genuinely friendly, so no complaints there--they were the best part of the experience. I can't speak for the other attractions, but if you're coming for mini golf, I'd recommend spending the extra few bucks and heading to Holy Moly at the Spectrum instead. At least there, the biggest obstacle is the course--not whether the carpet will survive another round.

    Expensive Parking Parking near the Acura Grand Prix is…read moreextremely expensive, with lots charging $60-$80 close to the entrance. We found a $12 lot about a 10 minute walk away, which was a great deal but surprisingly, navigation apps showed completely inaccurate walking times, so asking people nearby was much more reliable. Confusing Layout and Poor Directions Once inside, things quickly became frustrating. We entered through one side and were told the event had already ended, even though we had arrived two hours before the end time. Multiple employees kept redirecting us to different areas, and no one seemed to know where the racing was actually happening. Unhelpful and Rude Staff We asked around 15-20 staff members, including security and event workers, and most either didn't know or gave conflicting directions. One staff member was outright rude and dismissive, telling us it was too late and trying to sell us tickets for another day instead of helping us figure things out. Overcrowded and Disorganized The event felt extremely crowded and chaotic. There were large groups of people everywhere, a concert happening at the same time, and no clear guidance on where to go for specific activities. We spent nearly two hours just walking in circles trying to find the races. High Prices Everywhere Food and drinks inside were very expensive, which is expected at big events, but even vendors outside and nearby street food stands were charging unusually high prices. Atmosphere and Crowd The vibe was energetic and lively, with a mix of all ages, from babies to adults. It felt like a big, exciting event, but also very loud and overwhelming at times. Overall Experience Unfortunately, we never got to actually watch the races despite having tickets. Between the lack of clear directions, unhelpful staff, and overcrowding, the experience felt more frustrating than enjoyable.

Lots of different styles of cars so it was definitely nostalgic, as well as getting to see newer cars to fawn over. The race itself was awesome to see, feeling the gentle breeze of the nearby ocean, and that fresh smell of rubber burning on the track, sitting on the stands eating popcorn was the best part of all. There was a DJ spinning some tunes so I got to do a little dancing. Love the Grand Prix vibes this year around.
